Goodreads Summary-

There’s no emotion greater than fear.
No ache greater than grief.
No sound greater than silence.
***
I’m grateful he showed up on my doorstep,
pissed off and angry at the world.
If he hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here.
And I don’t just mean here on this journey with him.
I mean here, in this world.
*
I wonder what events in all our lives—hers included—are The Turning Points? The points where we all determine that the fear of our pasts and the uncertainty of our futures are greater than our need for happiness.
Here.
Now.
While time and everything around us stands unmoving… who’s to say we can’t have it all?
***
We wanted it all.
We wanted it with each other.
We thrived on the chaos we created.
And ignored the Mayhem that ensued.
Because falling in love was easy.
But sometimes, love isn’t enough.

I'm waiting because...

I liked this series right from the first book itself. So its a nice series with great writing.And I guess this is the last book in this series so can't wait!

What are those dreams? What happens when they meet and enter the biggest duet competition together? Will their love blossom during this emotional roller-coaster?
Join the VoiceMates in their musical journey to know more!

My Review :

*VoiceMates was provided by the author in exchange of an honest review. Thank you Anamika Mishra.*

VoiceMates is a name of a International singing reality show, which Tulip loves. Tulip is a naive girl from Goa whose parents wants her to study for BTech but music is her passion. She loves singing. But her parents hate her singing and so she sings for children at an old fort and their she meets Sam.

Sam is equally passionate about music and can sing any song, he knows them all. He too loves the show VoiceMates and want to participate in it. But can't since you need a partner to participate in it. And then he finds Tulip one day singing to children and he immediately finds his partner for VM. 

Tulip struggles to take part in the competition since her parents hate the show but she does and you see her growing up through the book. She gets some life lessons through the show.

Well, ending had a little twist and it took me by surprise. But it was a good ending for everybody involved. It was a nice and sweet read.

My Rating - 3 stars!

Review ~ Second Chance Summer (Cedar Ridge #1)

Goodreads Summary: 

RESCUE ME

Cedar Ridge, Colorado, is famous for crisp mountain air, clear blue skies, and pine-scented breezes. And it's the last place Lily Danville wants to be. But she needs a job, and there's an opening at the hottest resort in her hometown. What has her concerned is the other hot property in Cedar Ridge: Aidan Kincaid-firefighter, rescue worker, and heartbreaker. She never could resist that devastating smile . . .

The Kincaid brothers are as rough and rugged as the Rocky Mountains they call home. Aidan has always done things his own way, by his own rules. And never has he regretted anything more than letting Lily walk out of his life ten years ago. If anyone has ever been in need of rescuing, she has. What she needs more than anything are long hikes, slow dances, and sizzling kisses. But that can only happen if he can get her to give Cedar Ridge-and this bad boy-a second chance . . .

My Review :

Second Chance Summer is the first book of Jill Shalvis's new series, Cedar Ridge. As I keep saying it that I love Jill Shalvis, there was no surprise when I picked this book as soon as it was released. And it was indeed a great read!

Jill Shalvis has a knack of creating these perfect, adorable towns. Like Lucky Harbor, I fell in love with this town Cedar Ridge based in Colorado.

Lily Danville has returned to Cedar Ridge after a decade. When some tragic occur accidents in her life Lily can't cope up with those and she gives up living in the town and goes to San Diego. When she runs into trouble there and is out of job, after ten years she is forced to return to Cedar Ridge as her friend Jonathan offers her a job. 

Aidan Kincaid is a firefighter and volunteers for the local Search-and-Rescue team. He lives with his family in his family's Cedar Ridge Resort. The resort is struggling so he and his brothers are doing everything to save the family resort. He is very protective of his family. Aidan always had a thing for Lily but when she left town abruptly he was hurt, so when she returns to town, he tries to keep his distance from her and not get too emotionally involved but he can't stop himself from wanting to help and protect Lily.

Lily always had a crush on Aidan but due to some misunderstandings, she wants to keep distance but it doesn't happen that way of course. Her encounters with Aidan are pretty funny too. But they have great chemistry and so they can't stay away from each other. After some communication everything works out in the end.

I loved the story. Aidan and Lily were great, I quite liked Aidan's family as well. It was a great start to the series. I am looking forward to the next book. If you are looking for a Jill Shalvis book to read, Second Chance Summer is for you.

Some of my favourite quotes:

*
“He remembered kissing her… falling for her.

Then how she’d left the mountain without looking back, forgetting about him with shocking, heartbreaking ease.

Now she was back. And she’d kissed him like maybe she hadn’t forgotten him after all...” 

*
“You’re not a job to me, Lily. Not even close. You’re more. And I think I’m more to you too. I think it’s not that you don’t feel anything, it’s that you feel too much. I scare you.” 

*
“There were some men who just knew how to kiss, the kind of kiss that could send a woman reeling. The kind of kiss that could take away problems and awareness and … and everything. The kind of kiss that could shatter her into a trillion little pieces. The kind of kiss that somehow both calmed her body and soul even as it wound her up for more. Aidan was that kind of kisser.” 

*

My Rating - 5 stars!

TOP TEN TUESDAY #4 ~ TOP TEN BOOKS WHICH ARE MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted and created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week, they post a new theme and everyone is invited to join in!

This week's topic is top ten books which are my all time favourites (Freebie)!

It's a freebie week and I always wanted to list down my top ten favourites on my blog. So without further ado, here it is:

1. Psy-Changeling Series:

I love love this series and I love the author, Nalini Singh. She's on the top of my favourite authors list!

2. Lucky Harbor Series:
I adore this series. It's filled with adorable characters and funny story lines. It is a great series when you're in a mood to read something light. Also Jill Shalvis makes my top ten favourite authors list too!

3. The Sea of Tranquility:
This book is a little different than normal contemporary Young Adult books. It was an amazing read and I can't get enough of this book!

           

4. FBI/US Attorney Series:
This is an awesome series! Love the characters and the stories are fantastic!

5. Heather Wells:
This is another fun and adorable series. Heather Wells makes an amazing detective with Cooper!

   

6. My Favorite Mistake and Wait For You:
I'm gonna cheat here a little and put two books on the same number. Cause they're very similar, story wise and I love them both equally. MFM was my one of the first few New Adult books and I loved it. Though I am not a huge fan of this author, I like this book. It was a sweet read. And I like Jennifer Armentrout with her Lux series and Wait For You series, but WFY is my favourite in the series.

      

7. In Death series, by J. D. Robb:
I recently started reading this series and LOVE Roarke! But there are about 41 books released and its an ongoing series, I only have read two yet. So it will take time for me to catch up with this series. But nonetheless, I enjoy reading this series.

   

8. Caster Chronicles:
I like these authors, they're very good at writing and this series has a good story too! Plus this is my first magic related book, that I've read. So it will always hold a good place in my list.

   

9. Ten Tiny Breaths:
Though this series is not my favourite, but this book is. Loved the story and the characters. 

  
10. Lord of the Underworld:
I used to love this author cause of this series but recent books in this series were disappointing so even though, the new books in this series aren't my favourites, it still remains in my top ten cause of all the awesome old books in this series.

Bonus two favourite series are as follows:

11. Killer Instincts:
I recently started reading this series and have caught up with it and LOVED it! Elle Kennedy is an amazing writer with perfect mix of thriller and romance series.

11. Perfect Chemistry:
I loved this Young Adult trilogy and I love to reread it all the time. So this one had to make the list.

Even with the two bonus books and a little cheating, I have so many books left from my favourites list, I feel guilty not putting them in this post. But can't help it now. So,  this was my top ten list. What about you? Let me know.
